Increasing Sound Awareness

[Michael073]

Hello Dreamers! I am wondering if there are any premade sound packs on youtube or whatever to increase sound awareness. Something like the sound of walking outside and then it adds another sound (bird sounds, wind, water, rain.. whatever) and it keep's adding more and more sounds to try to remain focus on as many sounds as possible.. so in that way u increase sound awareness.. If this exists, please post some links ~ Michael

In trance we trust: Astral Projection - Axis Kai Tracid - Drift Deep Into Your Own Thoughts Listen closely as the sounds progress. The more you listen to them, the better they get, as your sound awareness increases!

The first video should have started at 04:07: Astral Projection - Axis. (I can't edit for some reason.)

Sure. Albeit not on YouTube, this description may help you appreciate the sound pack playing in the background right now with new ears. What one person might consider extra-sensory perception may be quite ordinary or perceptually available to another. For example, 20/20 vision is considered excellent, but there are a great many persons that have 20/15 vision or better. A person may improve their hearing simply by quieting the competing noise of self-dialogue that normally occupies us and by devoting that energy instead to the task of delving into the depths of the available auditory input. If allowed to run on autopilot, the mind filters out a broad range of sounds and attempts to muffle those sounds which are incessant, such as the hum of an air conditioner. We unconsciously fixate on a narrow band width of sounds within the range that is available to us. With little more than a desire to do so, we may expand the range that is within our conscious perception. The sounds that insects like crickets and cicada make are (in fair weather) ever present to an open ear. Give yourself a moment to locate the hum and chirp that these critters make and you will likely be able to hear them even while indoors. Turn off the television and the air conditioner and you may find yourself listening to the creaking of trees or the approach of a storm. From birds to barking dogs, the outdoors are a symphony of sound. Hearing may be turned inward as well. A person’s stomach can be heard to rumble, embarrassingly so, from across the room. Other bodily functions may be distinguishable to the attentive listener, such as the rushing of blood through capillaries in the inner ear. A practical task of sorcery concerns the ability to sense one’s own heartbeat unaided. In the beginning it may be easier to cheat by laying down on your side such that one ear is pressed against a pillow. By focusing on that ear, after a moment you should be able to distinguish the rhythm of your own heartbeat. With a bit of practice you will find that it is relatively easy to detect your own heartbeat in a full upright position. The next step, as with gaining conscious awareness of the normally autonomic respiratory system, is to realize that you may affect the rhythm of your own heartbeat. Attempt to become more relaxed while aware of the heart’s rhythm, and your heart will begin to slow. This type of awareness is more akin to a physical sensation than to hearing. But it is also possible to sense the ‘level at which you are hearing’. Which is say that you can gain conscious awareness over the decibel range on which you are focused. As you begin to sense the outer limit of the noises that are within your current perception (sometimes accompanied by a ringing in the ears) you will uncover the ability to shift your range of perception to include noises never before heard, such as the whisper of the wind through the sky or the vacuum pop created every time that a flea hops. Scientists just recently discovered that elephants have been having whole conversations that we were entirely unaware of. They emit deep bass rumbles that are just beyond are normal range of hearing, but which other elephants can hear for miles around. I believe that there is a mostly sub-conscious parallel in human beings. Though most of us attempt to avoid being caught in the act of actually speaking to ourselves out loud, it is not uncommon for our near constant internal dialogue to evoke sympathetic motion in our vocal cords and breathing. By way of example, concentrate on the subtle sympathetic vibrations which frequently accompany our ‘internal’ vocalization of the “hmmph” sound or the internal utterance of the word “wow”. When saying the word “wow” the breath tends to be released in a prolonged or full manner. Say it a few times in your own mind once for each time that you exhale until you get the flavor of it and are able to notice the manner in which each repetition affects the force and the duration of the exhalation. Then contrast this internal dialogue with the statement “cool” or “huh” (as with sudden comprehension) and notice how the latter leads to a shorter and more abrupt exhalation. Even though we are only talking to ourselves, we may be setting our vocal cords aflutter and affecting noticeably the manner in which we draw and release our breath. A person needn't be overweight and wheezing in order for you to hear the manner in which they draw and release their breath. A carefully trained ear can pick up the subtle distinctions which indicate various mind sets as well as common ‘sub-auditory’ vocalizations like single word utterances. With practice you may gain insight as to what those around you both think and feel. This ability isn't mind reading or telepathy, but may give that impression and is still quite amazing. At the very least, perhaps you will learn to distinguish the quickening of breath that comes to persons of the opposite sex which are unarguably attracted to you. Another interesting aspect of auditory perception is the ability to distinguish whether or not what you are hearing is the truth or at least believed to be true by the person speaking. Though this ability comes naturally to some, knowing that it is possible to do so may enable you to better discriminate in the future. It’s unfortunate that we can’t carry about electrodes and administer galvanic skin response tests. Though I seem to have lost the aptitude, I was rather blessed with an innate lie detector throughout my teenage years. Whenever one of my friends would begin to lie about something or even to just fabricate a story… a strange thing would happen to me. I could listen to an entire sentence, I would know that they were speaking English, but otherwise couldn't repeat a word that had been uttered. I would, however, be absolutely certain that they were making something up. At this point I would always say the same thing, “I have no idea what you just said, except that it was a bunch of bullshit!” And I never missed the mark. Though I think that we are far removed from matching the bats use of echolocation (unless you count screaming “HEY” into the Grande Canyon), it has been my experience that we may improve greatly upon our ability to listen. As bats create a mental ‘picture’ of their surroundings through sound, we may ‘picture’ the rise and fall of the wave that comes to us as sound. If a blind man can begin to make up for his lack of sight by gaining acuity with his other senses, then it follows that a man with full sight can do the same.
